The Sale

About The Sale

The
Sale is the brainchild of Portland, OR based singer/songwriters Bre Paletta and
Justin Bennett, two independent thinkers who fell in love and started making
beautiful music about the human experience.

With
poignant, piercing honesty and bittersweet reflection, the pair's songs speak
to the joy and pains of everyday life that can't be captured in everyday
expression. Abundant and pressing at the seams with vivid metaphor and
insightful wisdom, they let you see who they are and give you a glimpse inside yourself.

Rounding
out these two is a swoon-worthy rhythm section. Devoted friends, gifted
musicians and assets to the dynamic sound, drummer Chris Lay and bassist
Michael Dougherty's dual intuition and chemistry bring drive, nuance and that
extra kick in the pants. Long-time cohort, multi-instrumentalist Todd Bayles
also accompanies on occasion as well as a rotating cast of players on an array
of different instruments.

With
musical roots in the staples of the 70s, 80s and 90s, The Sale draws influence
from innovative heroes like Fleetwood Mac, Michael Jackson, Sade, and Bob
Marley. Their respective formative years were a flurry of melodies and old
vinyl, having been blessed with musical or music-loving parents.

These
passionate artists bring energy and intensity to every performance to captivate
listeners and evoke powerful emotion. Quickly becoming a mainstay in Portland's
diverse music scene, The Sale is on a mission to heal the soul through music
and community.
